= Letter in which Pierné acknowledges receipt of Schubert's "Ständchen". The rest of the letter discusses an apparent suggestion by Evert Cornelis Sr to include the "Chant Funèbre" by Chausson and the "Messe (a capella)" by Caplet in a planned concert. Pierné strongly rejects the inclusion of Caplet's work, because "dans un concert symphonique le public n'aime pas voir les instrumentalistes se croiser les bras" and "une messe, exception faite pour celle de Beethoven, ne peut provoquer un interêt assez puissant pour attirer le public". He finishes off asking for suggestions for other works better fitted for inclusion in the concert programme.
